A simple secret

I failed to mention my friend, Daumier. My friends name is, was, Daumier. He shared with me a secret, a secret that he had not told anybody before. He knew of this secret long before he chose to tell me; it was at a turning point in Daumier’s life that he decided to tell me his secret, one that he had kept for so long. His soul must have been weak, the very core of his person that chose to release the secret- was weak, this was unlike Daumier he was a tough man! We all have our weakness though… Weaknesses can get us in trouble, Daumier did care! I know he cared! He didn’t want to tell me, he knew if I knew nothing I would be better off. But he needed to get the secret “off” his soul and the time to do that had come. He chose to tell me his secret which he had kept for many years. The secret he vowed to take to his death, fear got the better of him. I was a long time friend of Daumiers and was surprised that he even had a secret I didn’t already know about. I was in for a life changing moment…a moment I wish now I could take back, somehow change the path of our friendship. But I can’t now, it was too late. Daumier was a good friend and my life was much better off with his friendship, but, if I could relive the moment that Daumier spoke his secret I would have avoided hearing any and all words that came from his mouth… A secret is sometimes more than we bargain for…Trust
